similar to: Migrate from Courier-imap

Hi! I'm currently trying to migrate from courier-imapd to dovecot... Unfortunately I'm experiences some difficulties here... Since I don't want any user to notice the change of the server backend I've tried changing the namespace in dovecot.conf to namespace private { separator = . location = maildir:~/Maildir prefix = INBOX. inbox = yes

Are there existing rpms for courier mta? I am working from: http://www.howtoforge.com/virtual-users-and-domains-with-postfix-courier-mysql-and-squirrelmail-fedora-14-x86_64 And am making progress with postfix and mysql, but looking ahead to other steps. I see squirrelmail is in EPEL.

Hello Gang, I am new to dovecot and the only reason (so far) I would like to use dovecot, and in production with 12k+ users, is the fact that it's supposed to be faster and less of a resource hog. Now, sometimes I am really good at reading the documentations but it sometimes happens that one overlooks something. I did read the migration notes three times! My users are in /etc/passwd and I

Hello. I apologize if there is a simple answer to this question, but I haven't been able to figure it out. Our people use various clients (pine 4.50 with maildir patch, eudora, messenger, outlook, squirrelmail), and all of them work with courier-imap. But I've become very interested in dovecot after reading about it, so I'm trying it out on another server. The results are mixed.

I have a quite old home server based on Debian 6.x packages using courier imap server (exim4, fetchmail, courier, apache2, squirrelmail) to keep my and my wife emails (about 25G). I want renew my server to Debian 10 (buster) and got a recommendation to use dovecot instead of courier. For this purpose I'm using a different PC as a sandbox. Debian 10 currently offer dovecot version 2.3.4.1

Greetings, I have long read and followed this list. I have also spent a considerable time with our good friend Google. I am a long time Sendmail user, about 15 yrs now. I have recently been looking into the newer services and the Postfix setup seems to be a very nice one. I am migrating a mail server from 3.x to 4.x and was intending on trying out Postfix on the 4.x server. I have found

Hi everyone, I have a client I've been trying to talk into switching from courier to dovecot, but the owner of the company wants me to set up two different accounts in Thunderbird (I finally got him switched to that from outlook express), one accessing his account through courier, and one through dovecot, so he can compare the speed... Is this even possible? I've never tried it

I currently run postfix and courier on my mail servers with squirrelmail. The problem with courier is it seems to run so slow. The webmail takes forever to load if you have many mails. I have this set up in virtual domains with all longin and path info in an mysql database. I just joined the list and DID google before asking, hope this isn't a common question. With courier it looks for a

I am converting from courier and have noticed change in behaviour with Dovecot. I use maildirs with squirrelmail connecting by imap as well as a POP3 client. Courier would set the 'mail status-read' flag for any message which was downloaded with the POP3 interface. Dovecot apparently does not. Is this a bug or intended behaviour? If it is intentional, can it be changed with the config

Dear Readers of tha list... Please help me out! I currenty have Dovecot Imap installed but I still have some old Courier Imap files from an old server which I want to use. Can I, in any way, import of convert them so I can use it?

Hello, I've been testing dovecot, and it appears to be much faster then courier-imap. I am using the latest .99 version, trying to make the transition from courier to dovecot as smooth as possible. We really only use IMAP via squirrelmail, I think I've got that worked out fine, changing a few settings in squirrelmail as the FAQ instructs and migrating the courier subscriptions to

Hi, I setup squirrelmail with dovecot and everything worked. I moved users Maildir directores to ~/Maildir/INBOX.directory/ and updated the .subscriptions file to something like ^INBOX.directory squirrelmail picks this up, but I can't seem to get mutt to read this style. In fact I would have assumed that dovecot would read ~/Maildir/ as INBOX and everything under it as it stands, without

Hi, my users were recently moved from a uw-imap on HPUX to dovecot on EL5. Their sent items and folders went from a ~/Sent mbox file (when using SquirrelMail and Apple Mail both) to ~/mail/Sent for SquirrelMail and ~/mail/Sent Messages for other imap clients. I notice I can cat the files together and the only artifact is I end up with multiple "This message is part of the system do not

I have been struggling with getting my Fedora 7 box set up to use dovecot with Squirrelmail and Maildir. It works correctly with the exception of writing outgoing mail to the right folder (.Sent) or drafts (.Drafts). If I send a mail with Mutt, it writes the mail to the right place, so it has to be squirrelmail config or dovecot config. I want to use .Sent for sent-mail (~user/Maildir/.Sent) and

Hi, i have qmail + vpopmail + dovecot + squirrelmail 0.99.14 on Fedora Core 4. Qmail includes its own pop3 server, and everybody is able to access it from outside. Dovecot is used only locally by SquirrelMail - so everybody can access via webmail. I'd like to make imap directly available from outside, but only for a few selected domains (NOT ip addresses!), while leaving everyone able to

Hi, current version of courier migration script courier-dovecot-migrate.pl preserve order of POP3 UIDLs, but it keep IMAP UIDs not in order which cause problems with clients using IMAP along with POP3 in some cases. Attached patch use MAIL_FETCH_POP3_ORDER feature added in version 2.0.13 to keep POP3 and IMAP UID[L]s in order. -- [ Ohodnotte kvalitu mailu:

Hi all, I am migrating a maildir Courier-IMAP installation to Dovecot. Almost everything seems to work well, but I still have problems accessing subfolders. First let's see what I have done. I used the courier-dovecot-migrate.pl script suggested in http://wiki.dovecot.org/Migration/Courier to convert mailboxes from Courier to Dovecot. No problems here. My dovecot.conf contains this: (...)

I am switching from a fedora/postfix/mysql/couriermail/squirrelmail to Centos/.../dovecot/roundcubemail and adding postfixadmin to the mix. My tutorial before was an earlier version (on F14) of: http://www.howtoforge.com/virtual-users-and-domains-with-postfix-courier-mysql-and-squirrelmail-centos-6.2-x86_64 Now I am using

On the Squirrelmail website I setup in the FAQ a quick install guid on how to get squirrelmail to work with Dovecot. Maybe someone can verify my setup procedure really quick. Maybe someone thinks this is wrong. Also if you have something to add please do so. No one has bothered to do this before so I took it upon my self. Here is the link in the FAQ its about 8 lines down
